What channel is the Ohio State basketball game on? How to watch OSU vs. Penn State
With only four games remaining in the regular season, Ohio State and Penn State will meet for the first and only time this season when the Nittany Lions come to Columbus on Thursday night.
The Buckeyes will be playing their second straight game without third-year center Zed Key, who will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery after spraining his left shoulder in a Jan. 5 home loss to Purdue. That game marked the first of a stretch of 13 losses in 14 games for Ohio State, which is guaranteed to finish the regular season with a losing record for the first time since the 2003-04 season.
Penn State is 16-11 overall, 7-9 in the Big Ten and has won two straight games.
"They’re a tremendous offensive team," Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann said of the Nittany Lions. "They’ve got older bodies and experienced bodies. The continuity from a lot of their returners makes it clear it’s been a reason for their success this year."
